Meteorological History

[edit]

On October 1, the JMA reported that a tropical depression had developed within an area of moderate vertical windshear, about 900 km (560 mi) to the northeast of Hagåtña, Guam.[204][205] Over the next 2 days the system gradually developed further as the low level circulation consolidated and became better defined, before the JTWC initiated advisories and designated the system as Tropical Depression 23W during October 3.[206][207][208] During the next day both the JTWC and the JMA reported that the depression had developed into a tropical storm with the latter naming it as Danas.[205][209] On October 5, Danas became a severe tropical storm and rapidly became a Category 1 typhoon as it races west towards warm waters.

Late on the same day, some agencies reported that it would reach Category 5 strength because of explosive intensification occurring as more convection wraps the storm. Early on October 6, Typhoon Danas was classified as a Category 2-3 typhoon as a small eye developed as the PAGASA gave it the name Ramil as it passed through the corner of the Philippine area of responsibility later that day as a strong Category 3 typhoon.[210] Typhoon Danas underwent explosive intensification as it steadily and slowly enters warm waters and it became a Category 4 typhoon.[211] Its eye became wider and was classified as an annular typhoon and impacted the Ryukyu Islands on October 7.[212][213] Typhoon Danas then rapidly weakened as it entered cool waters near Japan on October 8,[214] and on October 9, Danas became extratropical as it headed toward the northern part of Japan.[215][216] Its remnants continued to be a low-pressure area and entered southern Alaska and Canada on October 13.[citation needed]

  • Peter A. Burrough (1944–2009) - British soil scientist, author of the first widely used GIS textbook, Principles of Geographical Information Systems for Land Resource Assessment [40]
  • Isabelle Durance, Professor of Integrated Water Sciences at Cardiff University, Director of the Water Research Institute, and freshwater ecologist using a systems approach to address sustainable catchment management. [41], [42], [43], [44], [45], [46]
  • Petros Koutrakis - a Greek environmental scientist, researcher, and head of the Exposure, Epidemiology, and Risk Program at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. He is known for his contribution to air pollution epidemiology and creation of personal ozone monitors, ambient particle concentrators, high-volume samplers, and continuous fine particle measurement techniques.

  • Mathieu Lapôtre (Planetary geologist, Assistant Professor in Geological Sciences at Stanford University. Discovered a new type of ripples on Mars. Was part of the science team that operates NASA's Curiosity rover. Is interested in geological processes that shape the surfaces of planets and how they vary from planet to planet. He also has interests in the geology of the Earth before complex life evolved. He has published over 30 papers including in Science, Nature, Nature Geoscience, and Nature Reviews Earth & Environment. He received several awards including the American Geophysical Union's Luna Leopold Early Career Award and is a Kavli Fellow of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences.) [62] [63]
  • Haydn Murray (1924–2015) - American clay mineralogist, foremost expert in the world on applied clay mineralogy. He was the recipient of the Hardinge Award in Industrial Minerals from the American Institute of Mining, Metallurgical, and Petroleum Engineers (AIME; 1976); Marilyn and Sturges W. Bailey Distinguished Member Award from the Clay Minerals Society (1980), which also selected him as its Pioneer in Clay Science Lecturer (2009); and University of Illinois Department of Geology Alumni Achievement Award (2004). In addition to his election to the NAE, he was recognized as a distinguished member of the Society for Mining, and Exploration (SME; 1975) and honorary member of the AIME (2014). He served as president of the Clay Minerals Society (1965–1966), SME (1988), American Institute of Professional Geologists (1991), and Association Internationale pour l’Étude des Argiles (1993–1997). He received an honorary doctor of science degree from the University of Buenos Aires (2000). He is listed on List of members of the National Academy of Engineering (Earth resources).
